Me too. He looked horrible. But Albot couldn’t cope when Fed found a slightly better level at the end there.
Weird match, I kind of feel like I want to give some credit to Albot but then I also think that the standard of the match was generally very poor.

Albot did great for his general skill level. Kept a lot of balls in play. Made it a bit tough on Fed. We've seen players like that give Federer trouble before and especially in very slow conditions, but yes, the match was most certainly "on Federer's racquet." It was only a question of whether he was eventually going to play well enough to win before it was too late.

Set and a half, probably. Those couple shots he hit at 3-3 to go down BP in the 2nd were so bad you wondered if they were done on purpose. It felt like he only cared about winning after he saved that BP or thereabouts.
